Batch Script error checking

Hi guys,
I need some help.

I'm trying to write a script to append a date as the file extension to the existing hosts file and then copy a blank hosts file to the location.
This script is then deployed via LANDesk.

My script runs successfully but LANDesk reports it as failed.

Here's my script

@echo off

Echo Rename existing host & copy blank host file over

ren %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts hosts-%date:~-4,4%%date:~-7,2%%date:~-10,2%
IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
echo Original hosts file renamed successfully
GOTO CMD2
) else (
set ERRORLEV=10%ERRORLEVEL%
GOTO FAILURE
)

:CMD2
Xcopy.exe /r /y "\\SERVERNAME\LANDesk\packages\Deploy\Host File Scripts\Rename&Copy new hosts file\hosts" "%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\"
IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
echo New Host file copied over successfully
) else (
set ERRORLEV=10%ERRORLEVEL%
GOTO FAILURE
)

:FAILURE
echo Rename existing host & copy blank host file failed with: %ERRORLEV%
EXIT /B %ERRORLEV%

:END
echo Rename existing host & copy blank host file successfully

Here's my log from LANDesk

Thanks in advance

So you want to know why LANDesk is reporting a failure, even though the file is renamed and the blank is copied over?
Or are you saying the script runs and doesn't do what it is supposed to?

 

the error "The system cannot find the file specified." are generated when the line:
echo Rename existing host & copy blank host file over

is executed in the batch, the errors are generated by the use of 'reserved' words. Take them out.
